Dubbing Workshop 3 W/ Evaluation



Evaluation
In this workshop i've added 3 types of music based on how the mood changes throughout the scene. The scene starts with Omar making an appearance by walking into the block and as it happens, the 1st sound track is being played. The soundtrack used is "Snoop Dogg - What's My Name". I used this as an audio track to signify the dominance of Omar's walk into the block whilst the kids are running away. The track used is a typical up-beat hip hop song which relates to the way the scene opens, with kids running on the estate that are mainly from the black minority. I feel like this was a good choice of sound to use for the opening seconds of the scene because it creates a particular mood that sets the exact environment that its set in.
The next soundtrack used was the conflict between Omar and the teenager. The track used was suspenseful and it was used in an effective way because Omar was sending life-threatening threats to the teenager if he didn't give back his possessions. The music starts off quiet and gradually gets louder until the teenager decides to drop the bag. As the teenager drops the bag, the suspenseful music is stopped immediately at the same time the bag makes a thud. This suspenseful music was also used to create further suspense of what the next move could have been from either 2.
The final sound track used was an instrumental version of Tupac's "California Love". This was used because it is a typical hip-hop beat which makes you remember that you're on the block full of an ethnic minority that has mild-strong references to drugs and weapons. This sound track was also used because it was upbeat and it signified that Omar has achieved what he came for.
With this workshop project i couldn't find any problems i wanted to fix. I am in love with this masterpiece.

Dubbing Workshop 2

Evaluation: For this workshop i teamed up with Lloyd as there was more than one character in within the scene i selected. we both recorded our voices using an iPhone and then dubbed it over the original video whilst the volume was turned down. What i felt went well was the combination of our voices. The differences in our voices, instead of having myself pretending to be 2 different people, it makes it more accurate as well as realistic when two people act out on each character. The one problem that seems to get in my way is the way me and Lloyd's voice was recorded and dubbed. When it came to aligning the recording with the video, the beginning of the recording was in time with the lip sync whilst the ending of the recorded audio clip ended up being out of sync. This was because me and Lloyd found it tricky to record our voices at the same time the actors were speaking. To improve the quality on timing with the audio recordings i could have chopped up the audio file and make

Evaluation For the voiceover workshop I had to write a script according to the scene i wanted to make a voiceover to. I chose "Omar's coming" to make a voice over to as it was short and simple to add my voice into it. Down below shows the script i made to record my voice to add to my chosen scene. As there were kids running in the scene, instead of just making a voice over for the main character, i also made a voiceover for the kids as well. My intentions of using more than one voiceover creates more tension in the scene. From where the kids run into the house is where i made a voiceover for them. The voiceover at that specific point after Omar starts threatening the kids, had been said in a petrifying tone. "Just give it to him". I've decided to include this in the voiceover because it gives the audience the idea that they are actually scared of Omar, however as there are more than one kid in the scene some would show a different feeling to the r

Unit 31.3 Documentary Proposal

In this documentary, I'm working alongside two other people, Simon and Ali and our main topic of the documentary is about Knife Crime and Gang Culture. As we are a group, our individual productions will have the same footage but it won't necessarily mean it's going to be in the same order. This assignment is due in 17th of May, where me, Simon & Ali have important work to crack on with. Our topic for our documentary is Knife Crime & Gang Culture. The reason why we chose this is because it is a social issue that is currently still around in the community today. We all live in the South of London where stabbings and gang operation is a norm, so we have made a great decision choosing such a powerful topic to talk about. Our target audience are young teenagers to young adults (13 - 20) as well as this we are thinking of shooting in Croydon as it is the borough with the most amount of youths. Basing our documentary in Croydon would give us more of a chance to get
